Summary "Our Little Swiss Cousin" by Mary Hazelton Blanchard Wade is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. The story is centered around a young Swiss boy named Carl, who embarks on various adventures that highlight the beauty and cultural richness of Switzerland. Through the experiences of Carl, readers are introduced to Swiss customs, history, and the breathtaking landscapes of the Swiss Alps. The opening of the book introduces Carl's excitement as he prepares for a school holiday festival, which marks the end of the school year. The narrative captures the joy of the festival, where children carry flags, enjoy feasts, and participate in games. After the festivities, Carl and his family prepare to take their cows to summer pastures in the mountains. The beginning establishes a cheerful family dynamic, illustrating Carl's relationships with his parents and his eagerness to experience summer adventures, while also providing a glimpse into the lush Swiss countryside and its traditions.
